Internationalization of the Nuclear Fuel Cycle
The debate over the past five years on how to limit national ownership and control of nuclear fuel-cycle facilities is largely a response to the perceived risk of a growing number of countries to acquire these sensitive technologies. This prospect is seen as a challenge to the nonproliferation regime by leading nuclear weapon states and their allies, by non-weapon states seeking both to stem pr...
متن کاملSafeguarding the Military Naval Nuclear Fuel Cycle
In the safeguards agreements between non-nuclear-weaponstate members of the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty and the International Atomic Energy Agency, there is a possibility for non-nuclear weapon states, acting with the approval of the agency’s board of governors, to remove from safeguards nuclear materials to be used in non-proscribed military activities such as naval nuclear propulsion. Thi...
متن کاملCost analysis of the US spent nuclear fuel reprocessing facility
a r t i c l e i n f o The US Department of Energy is actively seeking ways in which to delay or obviate the need for additional nuclear waste repositories beyond Yucca Mountain. All of the realistic approaches require the reprocessing of spent nuclear fuel. However, the US currently lacks the infrastructure to do this and the costs of building and operating the required facilities are poorly es...
متن کاملMinimizing the Repository Volume for Spent Nuclear Fuel
When minimizing the size of the spent nuclear fuel repository, two parameters are important: the required total number of canisters and distance between neighbouring canisters (the canister array pitch). If the latter is kept fixed, the Canister Filling Problem arises. On the other hand, if the former is assumed minimal, we come across the Alternative Canister Filling Problem. Both problems are...
متن کاملInnovative Technologies for Nuclear Fuel Cycles and Nuclear Power
At the present stage of development no single energy resource or technology constitutes a panacea toaddress all issues. Therefore, it is necessary that all low-carbon and non-carbon emitting resources become anintegral part of an energy mix – as diversified as possible – to ensure energy security to the world during thepresent century. Available sources are low carbon fossil fuels, ...
